"Dramatic tale of "the sight' mixed with murder"

Fresh Fiction Review

The Wild Sight

Romance Paranormal

Donovan O'Shea returns to the family farm in Ireland in the midst of an archeological dig to discover the professor in charge of the dig has found a body. Donovan is forcibly reminded why he moved to the States from Ireland — to escape the "visions" he suffered all his life. Enter Rylie Powell, who, after her mother died of cancer, is looking for the father who deserted her shortly after her birth. Evidence suggests Rylie and Donovan are half-siblings. While the relationship may be true, Rylie is appalled to find Donovan extremely sexually attractive. Now, together they must dig through the mysteries of the past to find the truth.

I read THE WILD SIGHT in one sitting as I had to find the answer to the puzzle. The attraction between Rylie and Donovan is compelling and Donovan's visions are intense. Although suggesting a resolution, I did not get the full focus until the very end. A compelling tale of Ireland, past and present —they HAVE to have a Starbucks coffee in Dublin— the romance evolves fast and furiously while the murder is old and new. I will be checking the bookstores for the next book from Loucinda McGary!

SUMMARY

Sensual romantic suspense set in Ireland featuring a hero with psychic powers.

Cursed with the Irish clairvoyance known as "The Sight," Donovan O'Shea fled to America to escape his "gift." Fifteen years later, his father's illness has forced him to return to the family homestead where years earlier, Donovan's mother disappeared into the fens and was never seen again. Now the same fens are offering up secrets, both ancient and recent, and restoring a terrible legacy that just may drive him mad. And if this were not trouble enough, a beautiful woman walks into his life, claiming to be his half-sister.

Rylie Powell never knew her real father. Her mother would only say he was a charming Irishman who seduced her, married her, and then abandoned her and his baby daughter. But after her mother's death, Rylie finds tantalizing clues about her father that send her off to Northern Ireland and an archeological site on Dermot O'Shea's property, the man listed on her birth certificate as her father.

Did Dermot O'Shea father both Donovan and Rylie?
What is Donovan's connection to the Celtic High King Niall of the Nine Hostages?
And what secrets do the fens hold that invites murder?
